Quoting justinetime: Quoting AlphaF: Tell me zbrct,
How can you find trying to defame a whole nation over what some idiots (even if they are of Turkish ethnic origin) have done under the cover of darkness honest, fair and innocent - while calling likes of you "peanut brains" becomes swearing? |
just because it was said that some idiots had assaulted some tourist girls in taksim square, doesn't mean that the informer was defaming turkey in general. so don't get too defensive when facts like this, are brought up to our attention here.
i still have a liking for turkey, in fact i love the culture. you're just being too defensive about nothing at all. |
Look ! Read post number 1 in this thread.
If a 6-line newspaper effort to report some girls have been molested by drunkards include the word "Turk" or "Turkish" in it 2 times and some dear friend posts it here with no comments...I get suspicious that they all carry peanuts instead of brains.
So, what is your problem?
In fact comments afterwards, seem to verify my suspicions..
Also notice that a really obsene curse from one of the peanut brains still stands undeleted..Does that not disturb you at all?

and the mere fact of mentioning "turk" or "turkish" being linked with "sexual assault" in taksim square defames turkey as a whole?
i have turkish friends, and they admit that it is a disgusting thing that happens, but they don't think that this "fact of information" defames turkey in general.
just as the way the word "americans" are linked with the "sexual assault" that happens in new york every new year. they admit it happens there too, but they don't get too defensive about it, nor do they think it defames "america" in general. it is a fact, not a good information, but a fact never the less.
so don't get your panties in a twist, and be overly defensive about it.

I can understand what you have, to make your Turkish friends happy: It can not have anything to do with your intellect.
Have a ball!

it does bother me that the obscene curse wasn't deleted... yet. and even if there was negative comments that followed that thread, do you really think it defames turkey? there are still a lot of people willing to learn turkish language because they have a liking for turkey, irregardless of the negative posts here.
i think the issues are different for you. you were not arguing about facts anymore, rather, you are arguing on the basis of race. some "non-turkish people" post negative information about the events linked on this forum, and suddenly, the people who posted it and affirmed it with there threads are "peanut heads". would it make a difference if a "turkish" person posted that thread? it did come from a turkish newspaper, so i wonder why you are being offended about it.

AlphaF is entitled to his opinions, he is however not a representative of Turkish people. As a matter of fact, what is going on here is a discussion among individuals not one among cultures, civilizations or nations.

While everyone is entitled to their opinions, calling people peanut brains or discussing in a patronizing manner is not welcome and is a violation of the forum rules (which are rarely obeyed)...
AlphaF did this a number of times in the past.

AlphaF is a Turk, with international qualities and qualifications.
No one here can judge how far he can represent Turks in general...
